But the pace has slowed somewhat. In the first quarter, the increase was 40 percent, in the second quarter 25 percent compared with the corresponding period last year, according to private leasing company Carplus, which compiled figures from Mobility Sweden.
Most private leases are pure electric cars, 51 percent in the first half of the year, up from 45 percent in the first half of last year.
Leasing can be translated as renting your car instead of owning it.
